Mahindra XEV 9e review - Tech-loaded electric SUV that's great to drive | First Drive| Autocar India

A lot of things carried over from Tata...

Probably the only ev with nice back seat. Everything looks good from power ,rwd, to range

Curve ki copy piche se

Gotta hand it to Mahindra, they delivered way beyond expectations and have set a new benchmark for the industry. But I really wish it didn't have so much gloss black cladding for the exterior, it just tips over the balance for form over function.

Daddy of cruvv. That's how you make a coupe Suv

The external design (especially rear) unfortunately looks to be an after thought compared to that of the 6e.

During accidents or crash, the passenger will be adversely affected by the third screen, because of glass pieces. Is it correct ✅, what m thinking? Please enlighten on this issue.

The Third Screen for the co deiver seems redundant and make Dront Dashboard a bit busy , Otherwise a very good car , Interior and exteriror everything is Top Notch .

Is this car safe for people with pacemaker? Do manufacturers report amount EMF emitted by their cars?

The rear looks pointing upwards .. the front looks bulky just the interior is what looks right

Design not good enough and I doubt Mahindra electronics systems. I hope they improve all electronic issues over time .

I'd wait 2 years for Mahindra to iron out the glitches.

Only dash cam is missing now

It's a future car, hence waiting period is till 2034 😂😂😂

Mahindra should have also given a kitchen and bathroom in the car. 2 fearures left out. 😂🤣

Not a fan of the design and interior, but those power figures are awesome.

One of the worst designs after the tata curvv

Much futuristic

Nailed it with the design , i am sure it would be subjective since many are saying it is overdone , this could be my first mahindra car , i am just waiting for long term review

The front could’ve been better designed. Just looks a bland slab of metal. From every other angle, it looks stunning. Mahindra is killing it!

Is it just me or anyone else disliked the hideous design of the head and tail lights. What's wrong with the automakers. Bring back the old classic light designs. Get rid of the connected LED's everywhere

That is a proper boat

They should launch hybrid cars also... Plug in hybrid is a good option

Great

Not sure what is the fancy for introductory price by indian car companies. It should be the other way round . Launch with signature model at premium pricing with a unique badge. Then keep on bringing down the price with lower variants

Lovely package. Polarizing design. Too tech loaded. Unnecessary gimmicks. Feels like a novelty waiting to fade away, very kuch a like a concept car, definitely a halo product.

Incredible design and AI in the car

1st time ever, felt to buy eV being a diesel motor fan 😃

They should have used unreal engine for UI

Damn.
Thought this version will have the same interior of the be 6e..can the cameras be used as a dashcam?

Indian residence, market and city roads are not mean for such big cars...unfortunately Indian automakers don't know this 🎉

Waiting period 2 years +

Bring it with 2.2 litre m hawk

Every 9E Owner is Gangsta until the screens freeze and blackout like regular mahindra cars.

we need this car in diesel pr petrol as electric infrasturcture is far far away form charging and safety of the brnout is sitll nto assured

One can write 300 words essay on the bumper

When reviewing the ADAS features make sure to tell about the location of these feature...whether accessible quickly via steering wheel or via touch screen buried under menus !

Ugly is the word.

The Chinese mahindra .. battery, motor, software are all from byd

Hope the democratization of performance doesn't lead to a higher accident rate in our country. Thar owners are already infamous for reckless driving; this will only add to that reputation.

Should have made curved screen for the driver. Specially for BE6E.

MINIMUM WAITING PERIOD FOR THIS CAR IS MUST BE 1 YEAR AS PER MAHINDRA"S PREVIOUS RECORDS

Looks more like tesla cyber truck 😅

Toy !!!

Mahindra on the path of becoming GOD of all cars.

Confused wether wd drive this car in real or in playstation. Sadly no car feel after seeing the review.

Why on Earth is adding a TV for the co-driver considered a smart move? Isn't co driver supposed to accommodate the driver's blind spots on the left?

In my opinion, as a responsible veteran publication - it is important to issue a disclaimer for the Indian customer to make responsible and safe use of the power at disposal. As vehicles of such power become more and more accessible, I would be a bit on-my-toes as driving ethics don’t feature high on Indian driver’s lists.
